“Arthur Vermeeren, the invisible Belgian gem at Atlético de Madrid”
Arthur Vermeeren, compared to Busquets in Belgium, arrived at Atlético de Madrid for €22 million and with a contract until 2030. However, the young modern defensive midfielder has only played 83 minutes in three games since his debut as a starter against Rayo Vallecano.
Simeone has expressed his discontent with the club for not signing an experienced player for the midfield, and seems to lack confidence in young players. Will Vermeeren have a place in the team next season?

“Atlético de Madrid on alert against Mallorca of Aguirre”
Atlético de Madrid visit Mallorca of Javier Aguirre in a crucial match for the Champions League qualification. The red-and-whites have won two of the last four encounters, but Mallorca has been one of the teams that has beaten Atlético the most in the last three Liga seasons.
Simeone has struggled away from home, with only one win in five visits to Son Moix. In addition, Atlético has been the most conceded team in the Simeone era, with 64 goals against and only four games with a clean sheet in the last 26 official matches. Griezmann, Atlético’s top scorer, will be absent due to suspension. Mallorca seeks key points in their goal of permanence.

“Atlético de Madrid wins at Son Moix with a goal from Rodrigo Riquelme”
Atlético de Madrid got an important win at Mallorca’s field thanks to a goal from Rodrigo Riquelme. The colchonero team showed they were aware of the importance of the game from the beginning and opened the score in the fifth minute with a well-placed shot from Riquelme.
The goal doubled Atlético’s confidence, who waited for their chance to kill the game on the counterattack. Mallorca, who also needed to add points to distance themselves from relegation, showed little effectiveness in the first half.
The pace of the game dropped dramatically after the break and Atlético completely gave the ball to Mallorca, who couldn’t find the gaps in the defense to create clear chances in the final stretch of the game. Three vital Champions League points for Atlético de Madrid, while Mallorca will have to keep rowing for another week to ensure their survival.

“Atlético de Madrid considers Joao Félix’s return”
Joao Félix’s future will be one of the most talked-about topics this summer for Atlético de Madrid and FC Barcelona. The mattress-makers know that the culés will not pay a large amount for his signing, so it would be logical for them to request another loan.
Although his season has not been the best, the azulgranas will decide what to do with the player depending on how negotiations with the Atléticos go. The mattress-makers value the Portuguese at around 60 million euros, a price they know is very difficult for any team to offer.
Therefore, as reported by the newspaper ‘AS’, they see a possible return of Félix to the Civitas Metropolitano. It should be remembered that Atlético de Madrid paid 127 million euros for the player, so they do not want to let him go at a loss.
The former Benfica player renewed before going on loan to Can Barça until 2029. The episodes this season between the mattress-makers’ fans and the player have been constant, with the player scoring the winning goal in the Liga match at Montjuïc and celebrating it in front of the fans who had traveled from Madrid.

“Riquelme’s stunning goal enchants Atlético de Madrid”
Atlético de Madrid celebrated a solid defensive victory against Mallorca, with a standout name: Rodrigo Riquelme. The young canterano came out on the left wing and showed his quality with a stunning goal in the fifth minute of the game.
Riquelme received praise from his teammates and coach Diego Simeone. After the match, Riquelme dedicated his goal to Álvaro Morata, who is not going through his best football moment. Riquelme thanked Morata for his help and criticized society for attacking people as kind as him.

“Joao Félix’s uncertain future at Atlético Madrid”
According to ‘La SER’, Atlético Madrid will not count on Joao Félix next season and will not consider him for pre-season. The club hopes that the Portuguese forward will have a good performance in the Eurocup and attract the attention of other teams.
The tense relationship between Félix and the red and white club has been evident this season, and his performance in Madrid does not invite Simeone to bet on him again. At Barça, the only option for Félix could be another loan.

“Morata one goal away from redemption”
Álvaro Morata is not having his best moment at Atlético de Madrid. The Spanish striker started the season brilliantly, but his performance has declined in recent months.
Despite this, Morata is just one goal away from equaling his best goalscoring record in a season. With four Liga games left to play, Morata’s future at Atlético de Madrid will depend on how this season ends.

“Simeone plans a starting lineup without Morata and De Paul for the match against Celta”
Diego Simeone, coach of Atlético de Madrid, plans almost the same starting lineup as last Saturday against Mallorca for this Sunday’s match against Celta, with the only variation being Antoine Griezmann returning to the starting lineup and once again without Rodrigo de Paul and Álvaro Morata on the bench.
Pending Mario Hermoso, who was substituted at halftime in Son Moix due to physical problems and did not train with the group this Wednesday, the lineup would also change two positions: Marcos Llorente would go to the right lane and César Azpilicueta to the left central, awaiting Hermoso’s recovery.
Jan Oblak, in goal; Axel Witsel and José María Giménez, as central defenders alongside Azpilicueta or Hermoso; Rodrigo Riquelme, on the left lane with Llorente on the right; Pablo Barrios, Koke Resurrección and Samuel Lino, in midfield; and Ángel Correa, in attack alongside Griezmann, complete the probable lineup against Celta.
If that lineup is confirmed, with three training sessions still to go, Morata would be on the bench for the third consecutive match, although the first of that series was when he suffered an acute case of trigeminal neuralgia, which also kept him out of the previous match in Vitoria against Alavés.
For Rodrigo de Paul, meanwhile, it would be his second match as a substitute after a series of 14 consecutive starts. The Argentine midfielder, like the Madrid striker, had been practically fixed in Simeone’s starting lineup throughout the season, except for some occasional substitutions, in several cases due to rotations.
Correa’s step forward in the lineup, with three goals in the last five matches, and Riquelme’s growth, with Lino moving to midfield, relegated both to the bench in last Saturday’s match against Mallorca and, according to the tests, in next Sunday’s match against Celta in the celebration of Children’s Day at the Cívitas Metropolitano stadium.
Memphis Depay is already training fully with the group, having missed the last six matches due to a muscle injury and is expected to be available for Sunday’s match, although he will be on the bench, as will Morata and De Paul. Simeone has the absences of Nahuel Molina, due to a muscle injury suffered against Mallorca, and Thomas Lemar, in his recovery from a ruptured Achilles tendon suffered on September 16, 2023.

“Atlético de Madrid avoids partial closure of Metropolitano”
The Appeals Committee of the Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) upheld Atlético de Madrid’s appeal and annulled the partial closure of the Cívitas Metropolitano stadium for two games and the fine of 20,000 euros.
The closure of the stadium and the fine to the red-and-white club were imposed after a fan in the stands imitated the sound of a monkey, directed at visiting player Nico Williams, in the 33rd round match against Athletic Club.
Atlético argued that it was not responsible for the incident, having adopted all the required preventive measures and the fact that the person responsible for the chant was located by the stadium cameras, monitored from the UCO, and identified and proposed for sanction by the National Police at the end of the game.
The Appeals Committee stated in its ruling that from the point of view of the diligence required of the organizing club, Atlético de Madrid ‘has deployed, both in terms of prevention and reaction, measures that demonstrate the maximum possible diligence’. Recently, Atlético de Madrid announced that it had suspended the season ticket holder status of the fan responsible for the incident in the animation stand indefinitely, while the case is resolved in the competent sanctioning bodies.

“Atlético Madrid host Celta with Griezmann’s return”
Atlético Madrid’s place in the Champions League is not yet secured, as they are six points ahead of Athletic. Meanwhile, Celta have not yet mathematically secured their survival in the league, with an eight-point lead over Cádiz, who are in the relegation zone.
The match this Sunday at the Cívitas Metropolitano stadium will feature the return of Antoine Griezmann, who has served a one-match ban for accumulating yellow cards. The French international is not in his best form, as his offensive production has decreased since he was injured against Inter. Álvaro Morata, Rodrigo de Paul, and Memphis Depay will not be in the starting lineup. The inclusion of Correa and Rodrigo Riquelme is also noteworthy.

“A goal from De Paul secures Atletico Madrid’s place in the Champions League”
In a grey game, Atletico Madrid managed a 1-0 win against Celta de Vigo thanks to a stunning goal from Rodrigo de Paul in the last minute. With eight points ahead in fourth place and only nine points left to play, Atletico Madrid already feels their place in the Champions League for the twelfth consecutive season with Diego Simeone.
The Madrid team has won five of their last six matches and has reacted at the right time to not give any margin for doubt in the fourth place. Celta, on the other hand, looks to the immediate future with some concern, as not only did their good game at the Metropolitano not earn them anything, but Cádiz, who marks the relegation, also won.

“Simeone reaches 400 wins with Atlético de Madrid”
Atlético de Madrid achieved a new victory against Celta thanks to a stunning goal from Rodrigo De Paul 6 minutes from the end. This 400th win under Diego Simeone’s leadership makes him the coach with the most victories in an elite club in Spanish football, surpassing Miguel Muñoz, Luis Aragonés, Arsenio Iglesias, Johan Cruyff and Carlo Ancelotti.
In addition, with this win, Simeone becomes the coach who has scored the most points in the top category of Spanish football alone, with 976 points. In 677 games, Simeone has achieved 400 wins, 148 draws and 129 losses, and has added eight titles since his arrival: two Leagues, one Copa del Rey, two Europa Leagues, two European Super Cups and one Spanish Super Cup.

“Greenwood faces Simeone’s challenge”
Mason Greenwood, from Getafe, is one of the most sought-after players in the upcoming summer market. Manchester United wants to make money with the loaned player and Atlético de Madrid is one of the interested clubs.
However, Greenwood will have to convince Diego Simeone, who values quality and effort in his players. The Briton will have the opportunity to show off this Wednesday against Atlético, but his defensive attitude could be a handicap.
Greenwood is the forward of the League who presses the least, according to data from ‘BeSoccer’, and would have to work hard to adapt to the Atlético tune. In addition, Manchester United wants to earn a good economic amount for his transfer, as his contract ends in June 2025. Greenwood has had a great season under José Bordalás and has scored 10 goals in 33 games with Getafe.

“Stefan Savic could leave Atlético de Madrid this summer”
Atlético de Madrid is preparing for a summer of changes in its squad. One of the players who could leave the club is Stefan Savic, who has been criticized for his poor performance in defense.
Despite renewing his contract a few months ago, the Montenegrin has reportedly informed the club of his decision not to continue. Saudi Arabia, Italy, and Turkey are the destinations that have been mentioned for the defender, who has played almost 300 games with the red and white shirt since his arrival in 2015. Savic’s departure would be painful, but necessary for the club to sign new players.

“Griezmann leads Atletico to Champions League with hat-trick”
Atletico Madrid secured their place in the next edition of the Champions League thanks to a hat-trick from Antoine Griezmann in the 3-0 win over Getafe. The French striker, who had not scored in four games, took advantage of the complacency of a rival who has been coasting since securing their place in the league.
Getafe, without the suffering of avoiding relegation in the previous three seasons, have been comfortable in the final stretch of the season. Atletico, insistent on the right wing, did a lot of damage in the area where Greenwood showed his weakness: defensively, and with coverages, he is non-existent.
The red-and-white team smelled blood and the first blow came with a brilliant pass from Rodrigo De Paul that filtered through all the lines of Getafe. Griezmann pricked the ball with an astonishing ease and did not fail against Soria.
Afterwards, with De Paul once again at the start of the play, Griezmann manufactured the second. Bordalás, who fielded a team without a pure striker, tried to solve the mess with three changes at half-time: Jaime Mata and Latasa, two forwards, and Jordi Martín, a youth player who could provide more speed, appeared.
It was to no avail, as Griezmann quickly extinguished any reaction from Getafe with the third goal for Atletico. With a tunnel over Soria, he closed a counter-attack that definitively annihilated the duel with almost the entire second half still to play.

“Griezmann speaks about his injury and Atlético de Madrid’s problems”
Antoine Griezmann, author of the three goals in Atlético de Madrid’s victory against Getafe, spoke about his injury in his right ankle, which affected him in the last games. The French player said that qualifying for the Champions League is something that the team must do every year.
He also admitted that the team’s poor away form has been a ‘hard blow’ for everyone. Griezmann thanked his teammates for their support and said he will give his best in the last two games of the season.

“Diego Pablo Simeone, the record-breaker of Atlético de Madrid”
Diego Pablo Simeone, known as ‘Cholo’, has been the coach of Atlético de Madrid for 12 seasons and a half, becoming the coach with the most games on the red and white bench (678) and the coach with the most victories in the same club with 401.
Simeone has surpassed Miguel Ángel Muñoz (357 wins in Real Madrid) and Luis Aragonés (308 in Atlético Madrid). In addition, he has won eight trophies with the club, including two Leagues, one Copa del Rey, two Europa Leagues, two European Super Cups and one Spanish Super Cup.
Simeone has also broken records in Atlético, such as consecutive home wins with 20 and unbeaten games at home with 28. In addition, he has achieved the longest winning streak in Europe with 16.
If he fulfills his contract, Simeone would add 16 years in the same club, surpassing Miguel Muñoz (14 years in Real Madrid) as the coach with the most seasons leading the same team. Also in Liga, Simeone could surpass a historic mark if he continues adding seasons in the red and white team.

Arthur Vermeeren, the promising 19-year-old Belgian midfielder, joined Atlético Madrid in January for €20 million, the club’s biggest investment in the last three years. However, the player has only participated in three Liga matches and has played a total of 83 minutes.
Simeone has explained that the player needs time and patience to adapt to the team. Vermeeren has been compared to other young signings in La Liga, such as Güler at Real Madrid and Vítor Roque at Barcelona. Belgian national team coach Domenico Tedesco has included him in all the squads since he made his debut in October last year and has stated that he will ‘develop enormously as a player’. Simeone has opened the door for Vermeeren to start justifying the reason for Atlético’s investment.

Marcos Alonso, a Madrid-born defender for FC Barcelona, will see his contract expire on June 30th and will not continue with the Catalan club. If all goes as planned, he will join Atlético de Madrid to replace Mario Hermoso, who also will not renew with the Metropolitano team.
In his final season with Barcelona, Alonso has only played in five Liga matches and three Champions League games, accumulating a total of 389 minutes. His participation has been limited due to a back injury that kept him out for three months.
In his first season as a Barça player, Alonso was a starter in five of the six group stage matches of the Champions League and played a total of 37 games, scoring three goals. Now, the defender is preparing to head to Atlético de Madrid, a club where his father, Marcos Alonso Peña, also played.

“The brief and disappointing stint of Paulista at Atlético de Madrid”
Brazilian defender Gabriel Paulista signed for Atlético de Madrid in the winter transfer window until the end of the season. At 33 years old, the option of joining Atlético de Madrid was very interesting for the central defender after a long stint of seven seasons at Valencia.
However, his time at the Rojiblancos has been brief and with very poor participation. Despite being a player who would have a great chemistry with Simeone’s philosophy, the defender has not been able to find his place in the team.
Since joining Atlético, he has only played in five matches. In these games, the results have not been favorable: one win, one draw, and three losses. The São Paulo native will also not be able to play a final game with his current team in the last round of the season after receiving a yellow card in the last game against Osasuna (1-4).
Paulista’s contract ends at the end of the season and, after the poor minutes of play he has had, it seems that the sports management will not seek his continuity. The defender will end his time at Atlético in the worst possible way: without being able to say goodbye in the last round of the competition.

Memphis Depay will be the first to leave after not renewing with Atlético and Saúl will also leave this summer. Atlético de Madrid could also accept the sale of Correa or Morata if an important offer arrives.

Simeone has highlighted the importance of ambition and being well surrounded to last twelve years on the bench.

“Atlético Madrid defeats Real Sociedad in the final matchday”
Atlético Madrid defeated Real Sociedad with a clear score (0-2) in the final matchday of LaLiga EA Sports. The goals of Samuel Lino and Reinildo Mandava allowed the Madrid team to smile after the disappointment of the defeat against Osasuna last week (1-4).
The makeshift defense of Real Sociedad, without key players like Le Normand, Zubeldia or Javi Galán, couldn’t stop Atlético, who took the lead in the 9th minute with a goal from Lino after a cross from Llorente from the right.
The match soon lost one of the few incentives that animated it, the fight for the Zamora trophy by Álex Remiro, who had options to finish a great season with that award, but with the early goal conceded, he virtually lost all possibilities.
The match continued to be lively in a second half in which Atlético seemed to have more desire to take the three points, perhaps because Real Sociedad couldn’t offer much more, waiting for the rescue of Mikel Oyarzabal, who was warming up on the sidelines since the start of this period.
The red and white team couldn’t give the match as won in any case, as the Guipuzcoan team has plenty of quality and gave a warning through Japanese Kubo, who put Oblak to the test. The match, with a lot of rhythm because the players also wanted to give themselves a farewell party for the season, went on with more danger generated by an Atlético eleven that protected Oblak well and that in stoppage time, after Saul was sent off, scored the second goal through Mozambican Reinildo.

“Atlético de Madrid aims to revolutionize the transfer market”
Atlético de Madrid aims to revolutionize the transfer market this summer. The red-and-white club wants to make a restructuring of the squad and has clear priorities: two central defenders, a defensive midfielder and a forward.
The names that sound the strongest are those of Robin Le Normand and Cristhian Mosquera for defense, Manuel Ugarte for midfield and Dovbyk and Sorloth for the forward line. Atlético has already made a move and has offered 25 million to Girona for Dovbyk, but the Catalan club has rejected the offer. If the operation does not take place, Atlético already has its ‘Plan B’ in mind: Alexander Sorloth. In order for all these operations to take place, Atlético must give out some players.
